Nuclear fission is still one of the most complex physical processes we can observe in nature due to the interplay of macroscopic and microscopic nuclear properties that decide the result. An example of this coupling is the presence of…

The process of numerical thermalization in particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations has been studied extensively. It is analogous to Coulomb collisions in real plasmas, causing particle velocity distributions (VDFs) to evolve towards a Maxwellian…

We suggest a multifragmentation scenario in which fragments are produced at an early, high temperature and high density, stage of the reaction. In this scenario, self-bound clusters of particles in the hot and dense fluid are the precursors…
